When we feel ready to give up, healing can be found in the tenderness of pain itself.  In there, reach out and touch your genuine heart of sadness.  This heart is always there for us, it can be brought to the light any time and it will glow as brilliantly as if nothing happened.

As we go through the various stages in life it is important to make the shift from one stage to another.  We usually do this shift with a rite of passage, such as graduation, marriage etc.  It is important to know when to close one phase and when to open the next.

Life is not about withdrawing  from society, not about escaping into a life of solitude and meditation, its about engaging fully in life, it is about transcending our humanity.  Be models in your community and set examples of personal and social transformation.

Our independence should not be based on rigidity and immobility of character, but by keeping abreast of the times and changing with them.  What endures is the unswerving directive, the inner law of your being, which determines all your actions.

Quote: As you sow, so shall you reap.
